Spring snow
A bitter reminder
of nature's fickleness
and comfort's transience
A slap to the face
back to reality
winter's not dead yet
and never quite gone
spring snow
tops off the resevoir
melts into topsoil
softens the earth
cold mother
of summer's abundance
harsh midwife
of creation's rebirth
spring snow
sharpens the senses
teaches us patience
tempers our hope
Not the common cold
a new disease spreads unease
corona virus
Hong Kong apartment
under 10-day quarantine
but SARS goes global

The baseball season
America's rites of spring
statistician's joy
Congressman Issa
a true patriot is he
when money's at stake
